| Hoyt in Drag (1993) |
Here's Hoyt in drag from back in 1993! He was getting ready to go to a drag show at the Pegasus in downtown Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Before he left, I managed to snag a few photographs of him getting ready.
I was excited about it because I just bought a brand new role of Kodak black and white 35 mm film for my Nikon camera. Back in 1993, Anna Nicole Smith was huge with her Guess ad campaigns. Herb Ritz was the most popular photographer in the world. So, this photograph is highly influenced by that period.
I think Hoyt looks absolutely stunning in drag! He's giving me strong Marilyn Monroe vibes. Maybe he's even serving a little Linda Evangelista!? Was Hoyt a label queen back in the day? You tell me. He's wearing a stunning shade of Chanel lipstick and sporting a pair of bold over-the-top Givenchy earrings. The crushed black velvet dress and dinner evening gloves were extravagant in every way. Hoyt was one classy bitch!
I say it's tens across the board! Then again, I might be a little biased because I was the photographer and my brother was the model. 📷 - Carly
